Orbital rehabilitation of a COVID-19-induced mucormycotic defect – A case report

The surgical removal of the maxilla and the orbit and its content, which leads to degraded esthetics, weakened functioning, and arrested psyche, has caused widespread fury among coronavirus disease (COVID-19)-produced mucormycosis patients. It has been stated that a patient with an ocular deformity...

description The surgical removal of the maxilla and the orbit and its content, which leads to degraded esthetics, weakened functioning, and arrested psyche, has caused widespread fury among coronavirus disease (COVID-19)-produced mucormycosis patients. It has been stated that a patient with an ocular deformity due to surgical excision of a mucormycosis infection can be rehabilitated. Obtaining a healthy location for prosthesis acceptance is critical for the success of many resected patients. The advantages of anatomical and mechanical retention were fully exploited. The report includes an appropriate treatment plan for the rehabilitation of such faults, as well as a follow-up period and maintenance. Such rehabilitation not only improves the cosmetic outcome but also helps to elevate the patients’ spirits mentally. The following case report defines the treatment guidelines for rehabilitation of a patient with orbital and intra-oral defect owing to COVID-19-induced mucormycosis. It also establishes the steps required for the fabrication along with materials required and suitable pertaining to the above-mentioned scenario. The text is duly supported by images wherever necessary.
